The view outside yesterday morning.  It was nice to a little bit of blue sky!

Taking another break from this blog as I finalize work on a PBS documentary I've been working on since January...if you're interested, more info about the film is at www.alaskacivilrights.org, then hit "trailers."   In the meantime, here are some cute creatures drawn by the wonderful Julia Pott!  

I saw this little guy while walking the dogs yesterday morning.  I came back in the car to grab a few pics, but didn't stay long.  I didn't want to disturb him as I noticed his left back leg seemed to be injured.  He was walking fine but not putting any weight on it.  He doesn't appear to be bothered by it, and looks to be a pretty good weight.  He was foraging well, so here's hoping he makes it through the winter and heals up!

I was rehired by the Discovery Channel people in Maryland to take a few still shots of things that they missed while they were in town last month.  While taking a picture of the bear resistant trash barrel at Far North Bicentennial Park, where two people were mauled this summer, I was really surprised to see this sign! Looks like at least one bear is still out and about.
